I'm not into barbecue, but they had salmon on the menu so I decided to give it a try since hubby tried Chibang for me the other night. Hubby had an upcharge rib eye steak and I had the maple glazed salmon which I enjoyed. I wasn't a fan of the Carolina slaw. For dessert, hubby had an apple crumble type thing and I had Mississippi Mud Pie. Who knew mud could taste so good! 😜 How was the prime rib from Guy's (compared to MDR)? Looks good, want to try that on next sailing. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovestocruise19 Posted January 27, 2023 Author #53 Share Posted January 27, 2023 We headed back to the ship. Our backpack had to go through the security scanner a few times and then get hand searched which was odd as all we had was water, our phones, passports and our purchases. But at least this lets us know that they take security seriously. We decided to eat lunch on our balcony. I went to get chicken tacos and had already finished and was heading back up for dessert by the time hubby got his Guy's burger. Adinta, the server from breakfast, was scooping the gelato and she said, "Hi" and called me by name and then asked where my hubby was by name. It still amazes me how well they remember so many names. And just as she was asking, hubby snuck up behind me with his burger. Once back in the room, hubby declared that his burger was the worst he'd had on any ship because it was burnt. He's not nearly as picky as me, so that was saying something. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a meat cutter by trade and I don't eat meat so we'll take his word for it. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovestocruise19 Posted January 27, 2023 Author #55 Share Posted January 27, 2023 After lunch, hubby took a nap and I took a shower. We ate dinner in the Festivale dining room that night. Heart of iceberg lettuce: Mango soup: Grilled chicken: Some kind of meat (see, I told you I don't eat red meat!) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovestocruise19 Posted January 27, 2023 Author #56 Share Posted January 27, 2023 That day in San Juan, I had gotten a text from a coworker with great news. I had won top spot in my department of our company out of three states, earning me the title of Presidents Elite and a trip to San Diego. We celebrated with a drink at the Aquarius Bar. PRO TIP: DO NOT buy drinks while still docked in port. At least in San Juan. I had to pay a few dollars extra for San Juan tax. Geesh. Lol! This drink is my favorite, the mocha chocolate getaway, but I was a little disappointed because it wasn't as chocolatey as I like it. Hubby had one called "The Cruiser." Yay, me! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovestocruise19 Posted January 27, 2023 Author #57 Share Posted January 27, 2023 (edited) We watched the comedian Tommy Drake and then I watched violin music with the string trio. "Nightcap."

lovestocruise19 Posted January 27, 2023 Author #60 Share Posted January 27, 2023 The plan for St Maarten was to take the water taxi over to Great Bay Beach. Pro tip: Don't get your tickets at the booths in the middle of the shops as they usually have lines. Instead, head straight to the water taxi launch and there is a building where they sell tickets too. Cash only and it was $7 per person, round trip. We got on right away and the ride was just a few minutes. If Fisher Island doesn't work out, maybe we can have one of these! 🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were actually watching it from it being recorded on our DVR through the internet. It wouldn't work on his iPad so we had to use his phone. It was in and out at times, but I have to say that internet overall seemed pretty good on this cruise. It is "fun" when you recognize locations on OP Live. Nova Road, International Speedway Blvd! Lol! Happy Watching tonight! We are thinking of moving back to Florida (we lived in the Orlando area for almost three years) and the Daytona/Port Orange/New Smyrna area is at the top of our list. We absolutely love New Smyrna Beach. Daytona is blowing up....get in while you can That crazy Margaritaville place has a long waiting list.

lovestocruise19 Posted January 27, 2023 Author #64 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Back onboard, we got into our bathing suits and went up to the Serenity pool. I actually went full in while hubby sat on the edge. We hung out in a "nap shack" for a bit to dry off. After that, we changed and got lunch. I had a salad, pasta and mashed potato. Hubby had Big Chicken. We got dessert and took it back to the room where I ate my dessert on the balcony. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
